Scouting the Divine: Week Two #3

One of the main points this week has centered on living in community. Our Good Shepherd has such a tender heart toward us. But, do we have a tender heart for the others in the pasture with us? I’ll post more on that topic next week.

Some of you have expressed an interest in knowing more about Margaret Feinberg’s heritage.

Don’t forget our memory verse for this week from Hebrews 13:20,21.

“Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.”

Pretty neat. We don’t know how much our heritage colors our world. Those things our families did and said that shape the way we view things. Makes me want to know even more about her and perspectives. Thanks for sharing it!

Having a Jewish mother made me Jewish by birth. I have always wondered what would have happened if Grandma Flora had had her way. She wanted her special granddaughter, me, to follow the Jewish faith. By my becoming a Christian, I was able to connect the beliefs of Judaism that Grandma Flora taught me with the beliefs that I learned as a Christian. That, to me, was a great blessing.

I think that is a great blessing and gives a unique perspective. You would probably also really enjoy the book, girl meets God by Lauren Winner. She has a similar background although she chose Judaism and then rejected Judaism for Christianity.
